Rantzz Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 29 minutes ago, Cricspin said: Too many theories. When MI win they are great but if CSK win its because others were worse or did mistakes. Why can't we acknowledge that they are a good team. Doing basics right regularly is not easy. I don't get what's so great about MI that people constantly go gaga over them. They are a good team but not way superior to others as people make it out to be. This exactly. MI are a good team but let’s not forget they’ve had the best team on paper for years credit to them despite that they miss the playoffs way too often yes they’ve won 5 titles but two of them were really lucky last ball one run wins with some dodgy umpiring going in their favour sorak, Cricspin, Laaloo and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensible-indian Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) CSK used to be great. 2011 CSK was a force of nature. Post 2012 CSK had issues. Post 2018 CSK is a pale shadow of their former selves. It's incredible they won 2 IPL and almost won the third since 2018. Cant argue with results but they just arent a great team. This useless KKR lineup is no worthy opponent. Imagine this CSk vs old CSK or MI.... I am not too sure they will win.

Vk1 Posted October 15, 2021 Share Posted October 15, 2021 (edited) they are a brilliant side with a talismanic captain.. and they had luck on their side.. played Delhi and KKR on pitches which suits them the best.. imagine playing Delhi on this pitch and kkr on the 1st qualifier pitch.. would have been interesting Edited October 15, 2021 by Vk1 Rantzz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most decent players performance can be enhanced given role suited to them. Like someone badri best used during collapses. Plus he always likes having a lot of option which allows him to use players in situations he wants. Also constant backing helps improves players in weak areas like jaddu wasnt bowling much to lefties in previous season but now he does, chahar intially wasnt used much in death but in some season dhoni also made him to do that n his eco was very good in death.

They can easily play left right left and ruin opp plans but too much emphasis to iyer in early seasons n add ponting biasness to stonis n smith. Rabada bowling is also dipping.

nevada Posted October 16, 2021 Share Posted October 16, 2021 It is youngster Ruturaj who carried them mostly. CSK's bet on one veteran or the other coming good during a big match paid off again with Uthappa playing two back to back impact innings in the SF and final. The scary thing is that more teams will probably follow this formula now. Kohli already has, picking a 38 year old hobo! vvvslaxman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
